‘Slight Pain’ to appear at MEME PAS PEUR fest in France

Iranian short film ‘Slight Pain’ has entered the 2022 official selection of the 15th MEME PAS PEUR International Film Festival in France.

Iranian director Pouya Nabi’s ‘Slight Pain’ will mark its 9th global screening at the 2022 edition of the French screening event.

‘Slight Pain’ is the story of two young girls who team up together in a murder plan to kill one of the girl’s strict stepdad.

The 25-minute long flick stars Gilda Vishki and Marjan Ettefaghian as the two only actors of the film.

‘Slight Pain’ is Nabi’s fourth film production following ‘Silent’, ‘Honeymoon’ and ‘Sleepwalkers’, which all were warmly received in international film festivals.

Produced by Alireza Alavian, ‘Slight Pain’ has recently been accepted at the 2022 annual Poppy Jasper International Film Festival (PJIFF) which will be held on April 6-13, 2022 in the US.

The 3rd Asterisk Film Klubb in Norway will also host Nabi’s flick on January 25, 2022.

‘Slight Pain’ is an adaptation of ‘The Housekeeper and the Professor’ by Japanese writer Yōko Ogawa.

Founded in 2010, the MEME PAS PEUR International Film Festival is dedicated to the screening of contemporary works in various categories that include features and shorts.

The upcoming edition of the MEME PAS PEUR will be held on February 16 – 19, 2022 in Saint-Philippe, Réunion Island, France.
